Speaker 1: Your holster is way more important than you think it is.
Speaker 1: It's just way more important than you think it is.
Speaker 1: What look, and I get that. The holsters not the
Speaker 1: sexy part of carrying firearms. All right, You want to
Speaker 1: talk about your weapon and your ammunition. You want to
Speaker 1: talk about your safety training. You want to talk about
Speaker 1: how you did at the range. Oh, look at my groups.
Speaker 1: I was doing these failure drills today, and all that
Speaker 1: stuff is really important. I mean, really really important. I'm
Speaker 1: not discounting that, but I've known so many people who
Speaker 1: do all those things. They take all the necessary steps,
Speaker 1: and then they carry with a holster they bought from
Speaker 1: a big box hunting store that was made a thousand
Speaker 1: at a time. Please don't put your life in one
Speaker 1: of those holsters. You need to trust Northwest Retention Systems
Speaker 1: because it's all custom made gear. It's the only thing
Speaker 1: I carry around NW Retention dot Com. That's NW Retention
Speaker 1: dot Com used to promo co Jesse gets you ten
Speaker 1: percent off. This is a Jesse Kelly show. Imagine sitting
Speaker 1: in a cell full of water with only your head
Speaker 1: above it in the pitch black. Now imagine sitting in
Speaker 1: that cell like that for three days. How's your mental
Speaker 1: health doing? And with that, let me just wish a
Speaker 1: happy Monday to everybody. We are going to talk about
Speaker 1: treason and sedition. I've heard these words thrown around a lot. Well,
Speaker 1: I have actually found some treason in sedition. I'm going
Speaker 1: to call it out. We're gonna talk about Joe Biden
Speaker 1: already coming out and committing to slaughtering thousands of jobs
Speaker 1: immediately day one. This is going well. And Iran, don't worry.
Speaker 1: I'm not going to drown you in foreign policy. I
Speaker 1: never do that. But something's going on in Iran, and
Speaker 1: I thought it was really revealing for the modern day
Speaker 1: Democratic Party, the modern day left in what they believe.
Speaker 1: But before we get to any of that, let's rewind
Speaker 1: just just a little bit about seventy years. Let's go
Speaker 1: to a little place that doesn't exist anymore. It's called
Speaker 1: East Germany. Now, for those who aren't aware, just do
Speaker 1: about a two sentence recap. Here Stalin is allowed to
Speaker 1: take Berlin thanks FDR in World War Two. That was
Speaker 1: a mistake. The Soviets then sees a sphere of influence
Speaker 1: in Eastern Europe. Soviets because they're communists again, just like
Speaker 1: America's communists today do not see spheres of influence and
Speaker 1: then sit back on their heels and say, Wow, let's
Speaker 1: just let them do whatever they want. Communists use power.
Speaker 1: They take East Germany, East Berlin, East Germany and they
Speaker 1: force it into becoming a communist place. This is immediately
Speaker 1: in the aftermath of World War Two. Now this thing
Speaker 1: doesn't go very well pretty much right off the bat.
Speaker 1: It's hard enough. In fact, it's impossible to make communism work.
Speaker 1: It's really impossible when you're forcing it on people who
Speaker 1: were relatively happy with life beforehand. Lies the Germans had
Speaker 1: been through quite a lot by the end of World
Speaker 1: War Two, and honestly he had put other people through
Speaker 1: quite a lot. But we're talking about the regular citizens here.
Speaker 1: You've lived I mean, think about what you've lived through.
Speaker 1: If you're up fifty year old German citizen at this
Speaker 1: point in time, you've lived through the Ymar Republic, your
Speaker 1: money not being worth anything. Then you lift Adolf Hitler
Speaker 1: rises the power. Now post World War two, Oh gosh,
Speaker 1: the communists are now in charge. Your life has been eventful,
Speaker 1: to say the least. The Soviets get in there and
Speaker 1: they immediately start locking things down, pushing their Soviet propaganda,
Speaker 1: pushing their total control over society. And it's such an
Speaker 1: adjustment for people. Everybody. Immediately you're in a workers union,
Speaker 1: you're going to work here, and you're going to say this,
Speaker 1: and you're going to think this, and you're going to
Speaker 1: and it's a lot. It's they don't they don't exactly
Speaker 1: slowly work it in. They wanted in, and they want
Speaker 1: it in right away. And by nineteen fifty, you remember
Speaker 1: this is really really close. After the World War ended,
Speaker 1: they start the Ministry of State Security, which is what
Speaker 1: we're going to be talking about today. The Stazi, what
Speaker 1: was it, Well, that's actually difficult to say because it
Speaker 1: was everything. The Stazi was everything. The Communist Party of
Speaker 1: East Germany, the guys who run it, you know, there's
Speaker 1: always a council of these dirty commies who run it.
Speaker 1: They're a party, right, so they're the Communist party. They're
Speaker 1: running things. However, they need somebody to do internal state
Speaker 1: security because that's what commies do do. They need somebody
Speaker 1: to do external state security because that's what commies do.
Speaker 1: They need somebody to collect information, they need somebody to
Speaker 1: monitor things. And when I say monitor things, we'll get
Speaker 1: to that in a few I mean monitor everything radio, TV,
Speaker 1: your phone calls, the private things you say to your wife,
Speaker 1: what your kids learn in school, the products that are sold,
Speaker 1: the products that are not sold. Each and every part
Speaker 1: of your life must be monitored and controlled. You need
Speaker 1: an enforcement arm of some kind. If you're the Communist
Speaker 1: Party of East Germany and so, what do you do, Well,
Speaker 1: it's not difficult. Remember you have a big daddy sitting
Speaker 1: over there in the Soviet Union. You say, big Daddy Stalin,
Speaker 1: help us out, help us get this thing organized here
Speaker 1: and Stalin because remember, their goal is to spread communism
Speaker 1: in every part of the world. I need you to
Speaker 1: understand that as it applies today, because the Communists are
Speaker 1: still here. I've said this before, I will say it again.
Speaker 1: The Soviet goal was not to spread communism just to
Speaker 1: this country and this country and just to expand a bit.
Speaker 1: The Soviet goal, the communist goal, is to spread to
Speaker 1: each inch of the face of the planet. And they're
Speaker 1: not happy until they do so. And our communists are
Speaker 1: the same. They never get to a point where they
Speaker 1: look around and say, ah, we' this is enough. I mean,
Speaker 1: I feel like we're okay. Now they don't. They didn't
Speaker 1: then they don't now, And because they're expanding communist control,
Speaker 1: they're more than happy to help a new communist country
Speaker 1: like East Germany get its affairs in order locked down.
Speaker 1: This is how we do things. So they're approaching the NKVD,
Speaker 1: the KGB, they're approaching the KGB and saying, how do
Speaker 1: you do surveillance, how do you do security? How do
Speaker 1: you organize things? And the Stazi, the eight security guys,
Speaker 1: the Stazi, they were a wing of the Soviets. They
Speaker 1: did things the Soviets wanted done. They wouldn't do anything
Speaker 1: the Soviets didn't want done. They were definitely their own entity,
Speaker 1: though it's it's it's it's difficult to explain it because
Speaker 1: they're still working it out to this day that the
Speaker 1: Stazi in East Germany. East Germany was its own country
Speaker 1: and the Stazi they were their own state security thing.
Speaker 1: But they were never going to step out a line
Speaker 1: from something the Soviets wanted done, ever, and they were really, really,
Speaker 1: really good, And a lot of this comes to the
Speaker 1: fact that they were German. Let's just be honest when
Speaker 1: it comes to organization, and frankly, when it comes to
Speaker 1: cracking down on your own people. Who does it better
Speaker 1: than the Germans. The Stasi became so good that when
Speaker 1: people like Q but in Castro, we're trying to get
Speaker 1: their affairs in order over there and figuring out their
Speaker 1: own state security, the KGB not only sent their own guys,
Speaker 1: they would send Stazi guys over there. Hey, hey, Stazi,
Speaker 1: go get these guys straightened out. Tell them how to
Speaker 1: lock things down. You know, you do it real well.
Speaker 1: These were evil, evil people, and really good at being evil. Remember,
Speaker 1: you want your enemies to be stupid and inadequate. You
Speaker 1: need to fear the ones who are really good at it.
Speaker 1: Now the Stazi gets into place, you know, nineteen fifty things.
Speaker 1: I don't want to say things are going well, but
Speaker 1: things are. They're they're plodding along and then boom, nineteen
Speaker 1: fifty three happens, and there was we'll probably do a
Speaker 1: show on this at one point in time. I'm not
Speaker 1: doing it today. There was a national uprising in East
Speaker 1: Germany where they remember they're fresh to communism. The people
Speaker 1: freak there free, They're like, what is this crappy system?
Speaker 1: There's no food, everything sucks. D're in control of everything.
Speaker 1: There was a million person plus uprising of protests and riots,
Speaker 1: and yeah, it was wonderful. I mean it was awesome,
Speaker 1: the German people standing up, the East German people standing
Speaker 1: up and saying no. But in the end that prompted
Speaker 1: some changes. Talk about those changes and treason and sedition
Speaker 1: in the United States that I've found. Hang, oh God,
Speaker 1: on nadimally side of me, Jesse Kelly, don't listening to
Speaker 1: the Jesse Kelly Show. I don't offer personal health advice
Speaker 1: very often. Why Well, because I'm not qualified, I'm not
Speaker 1: exactly I'm not exactly the model of personal health by
Speaker 1: you too much pizza, I work out but not enough,
Speaker 1: so on and so forth. But in all seriousness, let
Speaker 1: me get serious for a moment. Please take care of
Speaker 1: your heart, take care of your blood pressure, take care
Speaker 1: of your heart. I have seen the effects of not
Speaker 1: doing that in my own family. It runs in my family,
Speaker 1: and just please do it. Go get super beats. You
Speaker 1: understand what an easy way that is to take care
Speaker 1: of your hearts. Just two superbeats heart. Choose a day
Speaker 1: that gives you the cardiovascular support you need. You go
Speaker 1: to superbeats dot com slash Jesse and that actually gets
Speaker 1: you not one, but two free thirty days supplies, superbeats
Speaker 1: dot Com, slash Jesse. We're gonna talk about Iran and
Speaker 1: what it tells you about the left in America today.
Speaker 1: We'll talk to that. Talk about that in just a
Speaker 1: little bit. But first, nineteen fifty three. Remember we're talking
Speaker 1: about the Stazi today, the State Police of East Germany.
Speaker 1: Nineteen fifty three, this a national uprising. The Soviets are
Speaker 1: still very very aware that some people are chafing under communism.
Speaker 1: The Soviets do not play around in nineteen fifty three
Speaker 1: with this uprising. It's so big, it's so violent. The
Speaker 1: Soviets roll in the tanks immediately and they put it down.
Speaker 1: And this is something you have to understand about the
Speaker 1: spread of communism. The Soviets were very, very, very concerned
Speaker 1: about people hating it publicly. It's part of the reason
Speaker 1: they were so brutal to their own people, inside their
Speaker 1: own borders and their minds. Yes, it's aggressive, it's violent.
Speaker 1: Communism is it is, it always will be. But they
Speaker 1: wanted people around the world to look at it and
Speaker 1: want it in their minds. They're always doing propaganda for
Speaker 1: everyone else. They want some random country somewhere a Zimbabwe
Speaker 1: to look at East Germany and say, man, they really
Speaker 1: seem like they have their stuff together. So when there's
Speaker 1: something like a national uprising that makes international news, the
Speaker 1: Soviets really freak out because they don't want that word
Speaker 1: getting out. They step in to Stazi headquarters. Hey, guys,
Speaker 1: mind if we have a meeting. Yeah, you were doing
Speaker 1: state security before, you need to do a lot more
Speaker 1: of it from this point forward. Let's not have another
Speaker 1: repeat of a million people uprising. So whatever you have
Speaker 1: to do to prevent that from happening again, do it now.
Speaker 1: Pay attention because this applies to how the left thinks
Speaker 1: about you today. If you're the Stasi, the Communist Party
Speaker 1: of East Germany, and you just had a display that
Speaker 1: you didn't like, you can choose one of two directions.
Speaker 1: You can go look at yourself in the mirror and say,
Speaker 1: maybe we need to reform some things so people aren't
Speaker 1: quite so unhappy and aren't quite so violent. Or you
Speaker 1: can go the other direction and say, we clearly just
Speaker 1: need to hurt some people to teach them a lesson.
Speaker 1: You notice what's happening in the capitol right now. You
Speaker 1: have a bubbling over of anger at the Capitol Building.
Speaker 1: What has been the response by the American left, banning
Speaker 1: social media accounts, tens of thousands of them, bringing in
Speaker 1: thirty thousand troops, high fencing around DC and locking down
Speaker 1: the place like it's a maximum security prison. You know what,
Speaker 1: The response hasn't been, not a single person on the
Speaker 1: left stepping up and saying, maybe we called them Nazis
Speaker 1: one too many times, maybe that maybe in a way,
Speaker 1: this is a little bit on us, because communists don't
Speaker 1: change ever. Ever, East Germany decide the Stasi is going
Speaker 1: to be a lot more aggressive. They began It's hard
Speaker 1: to put it into words because we've never experienced anything
Speaker 1: like it. I've never experienced anything like it. You haven't either.
Speaker 1: They began an information collection thing that I've never I've
Speaker 1: never seen this before, I honestly, and I could I
Speaker 1: could be wrong, So do not take this as gospel.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure that KGB went to these lengths of
Speaker 1: information collection. I know they did a ton of it.
Speaker 1: But they immediately build satellites to intercept every radio signal
Speaker 1: coming in. They put up planes along their border, recon
Speaker 1: planes that intercept radio signals, phone signals. They have stations
Speaker 1: built along their border with Western Germany because they're not
Speaker 1: only interested in collecting their own people's information, they're interested
Speaker 1: in collecting all the information from West Germany, who they
Speaker 1: were constantly concerned about. They're eavesdropping on West German calls,
Speaker 1: West German radio signals. The mass collection of information, they
Speaker 1: had an entire system set up to open mail, read mail,
Speaker 1: and then reseal mail so people never knew. They had
Speaker 1: machines designed to do it, wire taps, hidden cameras on
Speaker 1: their own people all over the place, and informants. At
Speaker 1: its height, the Stasi had ninety thousand employees at its height,
Speaker 1: but they had a hundred and eighty thousand informants. And
Speaker 1: when I say informants understand this world, it's just it's
Speaker 1: so evil and sick, it's hard to wrap your mind
Speaker 1: around it. Informants means your wife collecting information on you
Speaker 1: and giving it to the Stazi, your husband collecting information
Speaker 1: on you, your child, your mother, your brother, threatened, bribed,
Speaker 1: beaten into giving up your information to the government that
Speaker 1: wants to oppress you. It was that evil, It was
Speaker 1: that terrible, and it went worse. It actually, and the
Speaker 1: ahead of it by the way, you don't have to
Speaker 1: remember this is a guy named Eric Milka, but he
Speaker 1: was the head of it for virtually its entire existence.
Speaker 1: Dan and Up. He wasn't there in the very beginning.
Speaker 1: They dumped them in the very end. But that's he
Speaker 1: really headed all this. And why why were so many
Speaker 1: people on board? Well, here's part of the reason. Part
Speaker 1: of the reason is it was a really, really, really
Speaker 1: decent life. If you were a member of the Stazi,
Speaker 1: if you could get in, it was a decent life.
Speaker 1: You ate better, the pay was better, the housing was better.
Speaker 1: Speaking of housing, let's pause on that for a moment.
Speaker 1: While East Germany was drowning in poverty and misery and
Speaker 1: just life sucked because it's under communism, they set up
Speaker 1: something called a forest colony. I believe it's still there
Speaker 1: to this day. Now, that's not what it's called in German.
Speaker 1: In German, I'm not even gonna try to pronounce this
Speaker 1: walled seed lung w a l d sie d l
Speaker 1: u n g. What it was. A forest colony, a
Speaker 1: forest settlement. You know everyone else loves like crap, right,
Speaker 1: is communism. They took this area, this little area, and
Speaker 1: it's about twenty miles north of Berlin, and they set
Speaker 1: up this absolutely stunning little community for the members of
Speaker 1: the Communist Party, for the leadership of the Communist Party.
Speaker 1: You can go look at pictures of it to this
Speaker 1: day if you'd like, and I'm pretty sure it still exists.
Speaker 1: I think they preserved it. But don't quote me on that.
Speaker 1: I'm talking beautiful homes. If you're a Communist, you know
Speaker 1: you're one of the leaders of the Communist Party, you
Speaker 1: have a beautiful home. They set them up a cinema,
Speaker 1: they set them up a restaurant, a sports complex. While
Speaker 1: everyone else was starving, they had only the best foods,
Speaker 1: specialty chefs brought in. You're living like royalty, and they
Speaker 1: had Stazi guys guarding the place like a fortress. Nobody
Speaker 1: allowed in. You and your family lived like a king.
Speaker 1: And that's just for that's the leadership guys. But other people,
Speaker 1: you know, the ninety thousand people who worked for the Stazi,
Speaker 1: they eat just fine. The lights are on. If you're
Speaker 1: with them, just like the system today. If you're with them,
Speaker 1: life is easier and life is good. If you're against them,
Speaker 1: they will make your life a living hell, a living hell,
Speaker 1: and that that is how you get a husband to
Speaker 1: turn against his own wife, a son to turn against
Speaker 1: his own father. And what do I mean by a
Speaker 1: living Hell? I'm gonna tell you hang on. No word
Speaker 1: in the English language is less convincing than probably. Are
Speaker 1: you sure we should get matching tattoos on our first date? Sure?
Speaker 1: And we'll probably stay together. Probably, it's been twenty three
Speaker 1: minutes since eight I can probably swim. You should wait
Speaker 1: thirty minutes. Okay, don't tell me what to do? Candid scramp?
Speaker 1: Oh I have a cramp. I can probably hit the
Speaker 1: green from here? Probably? Can I get a Mulligan ready
Speaker 1: to go? Hey? Are you sure you're okay to drive? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sober. Yeah, I'm probably okay. Probably okay isn't okay,
Speaker 1: especially when it comes to drinking and driving. If you're drinking,
Speaker 1: call a cab, a car, or a friend. Buzz driving
Speaker 1: is drunk driving. A message brought to you by NITZA
Speaker 1: and AD Council. Make some crisis that has been perpetuated,
Speaker 1: in my view, by platforms like the one where you
Speaker 1: used to work, Facebook, as well as Twitter and others.
Speaker 1: It's really hard because what's happening is people are able
Speaker 1: to seek out the information that makes them feel good.
Speaker 1: That is what happenings that people have so much choice now.
Speaker 1: They can choose what their new sources are, they can
Speaker 1: choose what influencers they want to follow, and they can
Speaker 1: try to seal out anything that helps them question that.
Speaker 1: And I think that gets to a really core issue
Speaker 1: with how our freedoms as Americans and the way we
Speaker 1: have treated press freedom in the past is being abused
Speaker 1: by these actors, and that we have given a lot
Speaker 1: of leeway, both in the traditional media and on social
Speaker 1: media to people to have a very broad range of
Speaker 1: political views, and it is now in the great economic
Speaker 1: interest of those individuals to become more and more radical.
Speaker 1: And I think that one of the places you can
Speaker 1: see this is on the fact that you now have
Speaker 1: competitors to Fox News on their right OA and then Newsmax,
Speaker 1: which are carried by all the major cable networks, who
Speaker 1: are trying to now outflank Fox in the right Because
Speaker 1: the moment Fox introduced any kind of realism into their reporting,
Speaker 1: immediately a bunch of people chose to put themselves into
Speaker 1: a sealed ecosystem, and they can do that both on cable,
Speaker 1: they can do it online and that becomes a huge
Speaker 1: challenge of figuring out how do you bring those people
Speaker 1: back into the mainstream of fact based reporting and try
Speaker 1: to get us all back into the same consensual reality
Speaker 1: and ken you is that possible. It seems like that's
Speaker 1: an open question. It's hard. I mean, I think we
Speaker 1: got to do a couple of things. One, there needs
Speaker 1: to be an intentional work by the social media companies
Speaker 1: collaborating together to work on violent extremism in the same
Speaker 1: way they worked on ISIS. When I started at Facebook
Speaker 1: in twenty fifteen, the number one challenge from a content
Speaker 1: perspective was the abuse of social media by the Islamic state,
Speaker 1: and there was a collaboration between the tech companies and
Speaker 1: between the tech companies and law enforcement to make it
Speaker 1: impossible for them to use the internet to re and
Speaker 1: radicalize mostly young musliment at the time around the world.
Speaker 1: Now we're talking about domestic audience in the United States,
Speaker 1: and the challenge is going to be partially that. You know,
Speaker 1: Isis did not have a domestic constituency in the United
Speaker 1: States Congress, but there is over half of the Republicans
Speaker 1: and Congress voted to overturn the election, and there will
Speaker 1: be a continual political pressure on the companies to not
Speaker 1: take it seriously. So I think first you have to
Speaker 1: focus on those violent extremists, and those companies have to
Speaker 1: be brave in that way. And second, we have to
Speaker 1: turn down the capability of these conservative influencers to reach
Speaker 1: these huge audiences. There are people on YouTube, for example,
Speaker 1: that have a larger larger audience than daytime CNN, and
Speaker 1: they are extremely radical and pushing extremely radical views. And
Speaker 1: so it's up to the facebooks and youtubes in particular
Speaker 1: to think about whether or not they want to be
Speaker 1: effectively cable networks for disinformation. And then we're gonna have
Speaker 1: to figure out the o ANN and Newsmax problem. You
Speaker 1: know that these companies have freedom of speech, but I'm
Speaker 1: not sure we need varies an AT and T, Comcast
Speaker 1: and such to be bringing them into tens of millions
Speaker 1: of homes. American communists are not different than communists have
Speaker 1: always been. We'll get to more of that here in
Speaker 1: a few But how bad could it get in East Germany? Well,
Speaker 1: remember we talked earlier about the mass collection of information
Speaker 1: right all over the place. Your phone calls, they're listening.
Speaker 1: You're on a radio somewhere. They're listening. You're having a
Speaker 1: private conversation with somebody, even a friend, relative, husband, wife,
Speaker 1: could very well be informing on you to the Stazi.
Speaker 1: And what are they looking for? Understand they're not looking
Speaker 1: for just oh well, he's organizing an underground network of
Speaker 1: freedom fighters to fight against US. No. One of the
Speaker 1: main classifications they needed to arrest you was quote malcontents.
Speaker 1: Not only did you have to be part of the
Speaker 1: miserable communist system, you had to be happy about it.
Speaker 1: You don't get to march around looking for your job.
Speaker 1: I don't like it that there's not enough food in
Speaker 1: the grocery store. Oh man, this job doesn't pay well enough.
Speaker 1: Oh I didn't you know what. This building's kind of ugly.
Speaker 1: That's the kind of stuff that's enough to get you arrested.
Speaker 1: Now let's talk about the arrest. Remember, they don't want
Speaker 1: it to be obvious what's happening. They don't come and
Speaker 1: stop you in the street for the most part, pull
Speaker 1: you over though you and cuffs take you downtown. That
Speaker 1: would lead people to believe that everything isn't fine. No,
Speaker 1: they come in the middle of the night, the early
Speaker 1: early am. And they're not throwing you in the back
Speaker 1: of a gigantic Stasi police car taking him down to
Speaker 1: a Stazzi jail. Don't worry, no, that throw you in
Speaker 1: the back of a bread truck, a laundry truck with
Speaker 1: no windows on it. They obviously blindfold you, handcuff you.
Speaker 1: They'll drive you around for hours and hours and hours
Speaker 1: in the same town, so you have no idea where
Speaker 1: you are. When they finally get you to the Stazi jails.
Speaker 1: They're gonna get you to the Stazi jails, and then
Speaker 1: they're going to start taking you apart, piece by piece.
Speaker 1: And remember this, they didn't just find out about you
Speaker 1: five minutes ago and then go place handcuffs on you.
Speaker 1: Mass collection of information. What kind of information do people
Speaker 1: have on you? How's your Google search history? Look your
Speaker 1: social media pages? Anybody out there know anything about you?
Speaker 1: These guys are not haphazardly doing this. When they bring
Speaker 1: you into a Stazzi prison cell, you're always alone, except
Speaker 1: in certain circumstances, in which I'll get to in a minute.
Speaker 1: You're always alone. The cells horrible. Oftentimes there's there's no water,
Speaker 1: there's a bucket in the corner, they would you would
Speaker 1: go months without showering. I apologize for how gross this is,
Speaker 1: but there are stories out there of guys peeing on
Speaker 1: their hands to try to clean themselves. That kind of disgustingness.
Speaker 1: And they have a file on you. They know who
Speaker 1: you are. They know about your wife, your kids, your brother,
Speaker 1: your sister, They know the things you've said in private.
Speaker 1: They know so many things about you, and you don't
Speaker 1: know what they know about you. They know it all,
Speaker 1: and they're coming up with the plan to rip you
Speaker 1: apart physically and mentally, piece by piece so they can
Speaker 1: find out the things they want to find out about.
Speaker 1: They are purposeful about it, very very purposeful. Maybe they
Speaker 1: already know you have a little fear of drowning. Maybe
Speaker 1: you said that to your brother in private conversation out
Speaker 1: back on your patio having a beer in a cigarette
Speaker 1: one day, and maybe there was a wire tap there
Speaker 1: that went in your little file. Maybe they would play
Speaker 1: over the loudspeaker, as they often did, sounds of people
Speaker 1: screaming in pain, just so you could be scared to
Speaker 1: death when they hauled you down for interrogation. Those interrogations
Speaker 1: were beatings, electronic shocks, The worst things you can imagine,
Speaker 1: remember that drowning story at the very beginning, that was real.
Speaker 1: One guy I read about five different times, he was
Speaker 1: placed in a cell standing up. They filled it three
Speaker 1: quarters full of water, a water sealed cell in the
Speaker 1: pitch black, with only his head above the water. You
Speaker 1: can't sit, you can't kneel, you can't lay down, or
Speaker 1: you will drown. And left him in there for three
Speaker 1: days at a time. How much can your mind take
Speaker 1: before it's gone? Before it's gone? The women, female prisoners
Speaker 1: were subject to a lot of other kinds of abuse
Speaker 1: that I obviously don't have to go into. It's just
Speaker 1: it's always worse for women, sadly, it's terrible. And that
Speaker 1: was that was the overt stuff. They would do something
Speaker 1: else when they started to try to move away from
Speaker 1: killing and torturing all their prisoners. You see, Oh, I
Speaker 1: forgot to mention the killing. You know how you would
Speaker 1: be executed often in a Stasi prison. They would put
Speaker 1: you in a little cell with the toilet and tell
Speaker 1: you to write a final letter to somebody. Then they
Speaker 1: would take your final letter. Oh it wasn't to mail out.
Speaker 1: They just wanted one more list of your final thoughts.
Speaker 1: And the people you were writing too. They led you
Speaker 1: to another room that had some weird shape to it,
Speaker 1: and as you looked around trying to get your bearings,
Speaker 1: they shot you in the back of the head. Now
Speaker 1: you want to know how much worse it gets outside
Speaker 1: of prison, I'm about to tell you, and it is sad.
Speaker 1: And then we'll wrap this up, maybe even talk about
Speaker 1: some hot pockets. Hang on, missus, catch up Jesse Kelly

Speaker 1: We said stop texts. Stop REX dot org a public
Speaker 1: service announcement brought to you by the National Highway Traffic
Speaker 1: Safety Administration and the ad Council. We're gonna talk about
Speaker 1: the treason and sedition I have found right here in
Speaker 1: the United States of America. Here in a second, Jewish
Speaker 1: producer Chris has kindly asked as he cringes, that I
Speaker 1: stopped talking about drowning cells and electric shock and pulled
Speaker 1: out fingernails. I do want to clarify what these people
Speaker 1: would do though. This was one guy's story I read
Speaker 1: after he'd been imprisoned. He had tried to escape, he
Speaker 1: after he'd bid in prison. They got him, tortured him,
Speaker 1: met his life miserable. They then let him out because
Speaker 1: there was some pressure on them from other countries to
Speaker 1: let him out. They let him out, and he was
Speaker 1: still an unhappy person. Remember, malcontent is something you weren't
Speaker 1: allowed to be. Had a beautiful wife and daughter, so
Speaker 1: they didn't arrest him again. Was a news story, international
Speaker 1: news story. They just simply showed up in the middle
Speaker 1: of the night and arrested his wife, and she had
Speaker 1: a very rough time in prison. She was a beautiful woman.
Speaker 1: Like I said. The guards abused her, and they also
Speaker 1: took away his daughter and arrested her too and abused her. Finally,
Speaker 1: they let his wife out of prison, and this beautiful, smart,
Speaker 1: loving woman was so broken mentally she spent the rest
Speaker 1: of her days in a mental hospital. By the time
Speaker 1: they let his daughter out of prison, she hated her
Speaker 1: father because they had brutalized her so badly, and made
Speaker 1: sure she blamed him that she never spoke to him again.
Speaker 1: Communists are evil. I cannot possibly stress this enough. Communism
Speaker 1: is the most evil thing on the planet. And you
Speaker 1: had better fight until you die to avoid living underneath it.
Speaker 1: Many people have before, and anybody who's ever lived underneath
Speaker 1: it will echo those words. Communism is evil. And you
Speaker 1: know what they would do when they stopped the torturing
Speaker 1: and murder, Because it wasn't all torturing and murder. They
Speaker 1: did something called disintegration. What was disintegration? It went from
Speaker 1: kind of humorously odd to absolutely horrible. You see, if
Speaker 1: they couldn't throw you in a jail cell and pull
Speaker 1: your fingernails out. Because the world was starting to watch it.
Speaker 1: As we started to move into the seventies and eighties,
Speaker 1: the world was really starting to watch East Germany wanted
Speaker 1: to be considered legitimate. The rest of the world's all, yeah, well,
Speaker 1: could you stop hooking car batteries up to people then,
Speaker 1: so they would do something really mild, like deflate your
Speaker 1: bike tires. Every single day you'd come out to ride
Speaker 1: your bike to work and they had deflated your bike tires.
Speaker 1: They would fill up your mailbox every day with pornography,
Speaker 1: just a weird way to mess with your mind. They
Speaker 1: would find ways to ruin your career. They would begin
Speaker 1: to threaten your boss, talk to your boss. Soon you
Speaker 1: go from being an outstanding employee to you're fired. They
Speaker 1: would worm their way into your wife. They would find
Speaker 1: a way to have her start to dislike you, fill
Speaker 1: her mind up with certain things, accuse you of certain things. Lie.
Speaker 1: They would break into your apartment when they knew everybody
Speaker 1: was gone, and simply move everything in your apartment around,
Speaker 1: just to mess with your mind and let you know
Speaker 1: people had been there. Called disintegration. And remember they would
Speaker 1: do this PreCrime, not postcrime. If they even thought you
Speaker 1: were going to be guilty of something, they would come
Speaker 1: after you. They had their own prison set up bouts
Speaker 1: in two what was called it was a special Stasi prison,
Speaker 1: lock you away in the dark forever. They had secret
Speaker 1: bunkers all across the country with hidden doors. They still exist.
Speaker 1: I kind of want to go see them. They still
Speaker 1: exist in case there was another uprising in a place
Speaker 1: where the communists could hide if the people rose up.
Speaker 1: This went on for decades. People lived like this for decades.
Speaker 1: There are people alive today still talking about what it
Speaker 1: was like to live under this living hell. And these
Speaker 1: people who are alive today, they're all over there on video.
Speaker 1: You can find audio of them screaming about don't let
Speaker 1: it happen again. You don't know what it's like, the
Speaker 1: utter misery of your life. The Stasi even controlled things
Speaker 1: like the economy because communism it all sucks. Everything sucks.
Speaker 1: So there'd be a black market for everything even and
Speaker 1: I know it just means like drugs, TVs, food, basic necessities,
Speaker 1: and they would find people shipping these things in and
Speaker 1: kill them. I cannot possibly stress enough to you. All
Speaker 1: we're gonna take away from today is this. You don't
Speaker 1: want to see this in its final form. You do
Speaker 1: not want to live like this. You see these videos
Speaker 1: and the way people cry, and the way they pour
Speaker 1: their hearts out, and the way they almost always almost universally,
Speaker 1: when they tell their stories there they make sure they
Speaker 1: give a warning, don't let it happen. Do anything you
Speaker 1: can do. Not it happened. If it happens, your life
Speaker 1: is over. Don't let it happen. We really, really really
Speaker 1: have to make sure that doesn't happen here, all right,
Speaker 1: Treason and sedition and hot pockets hang on. You don't
Speaker 1: have to dip forever. You know that, Ryan. You don't
Speaker 1: have to smoke forever. And the reason I say it
Speaker 1: like that is I have been that guy. I've been
Speaker 1: that guy. I dipped for so long. And what would
Speaker 1: happen is I would decide I'm gonna quit. It's bad
Speaker 1: for me. I'm gonna quit. I'm a man, I don't
Speaker 1: need any help. I'm just gonna quit cold turkey. And
Speaker 1: I would fail time and time and time again. I
Speaker 1: tried things like the patch that didn't work, gum of
Speaker 1: sunflower seeds. I tried at all. It's just a matter
Speaker 1: of finding the right thing to help you quit. That's
